This developer note describes the differences and similarities between features of the Power Macintosh 4400 computer and the Apple Logic Board Design LPX-40. The information in the Apple Logic Board Design LPX-40 developer note is repeated in chapters 2 through 4 of this developer note. If you are already familiar with the LPX-40 logic board, Chapter 1 provides you with the information required to understand the design features of the Power Macintosh 4400 computer. This developer note is intended to help hardware and software developers design products that are compatible with the Macintosh products described here. If you are unfamiliar with Macintosh computers or would simply like more technical information, you may wish to read the related technical documents listed in the section “Supplemental Reference Documents.” Contents of This Note 0 The information is arranged in four chapters and an index. ■ Chapter 1, “Introduction,” gives a summary of the features of the Power Macintosh 4400 computer and discusses issues related to compatibility with other Macintosh computer software and hardware. ■ Chapter 2, “Architecture,” describes the organization of the logic board. This chapter includes a block diagram and descriptions of the main components of the logic board. ■ Chapter 3, “I/O Features,” describes the built-in input/output (I/O) device interfaces and the external I/O ports. It also describes the built-in video support for external video monitors. ■ Chapter 4, “Expansion Features,” describes the expansion slots on the Power Macintosh 4400 computer logic board. This chapter provides descriptions of the supported DRAM, second-level cache, and I/O expansion slots and brief descriptions of the expansion modules for the other slots. ix Supplemental Reference Documents 0 For a description of the version of the Mac OS that supports the Power Macintosh 4400 computer, developers should refer to Technote 1050. Developers should have the relevant books of the Inside Macintosh series.
